Projected value (24 months)€496k – €1.4M
Dashed line: current market value (€1.4M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Toni Lato's performance-implied value at EUR 1.1M-2.3M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.4M-1.1M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.5M-1.4M. Confidence is low: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.

Acquisition note: Final year of contract: selling club's leverage is reduced.
